As usual, after such an hard work it is always right to thank those who contributed with you to reach the goal. First of all, huge thanks to my “partner in crime” Duilio Tacconi that accepted again the idea to write this second edition after the success of our first edition. Without your contribution, this book would probably not be like this…

Then, thanks a lot also to some MVP friends that in a way or another have contributed on the content of some chapters: thanks to Josh Anglesea for helping on writing a great Power Platform sample (there’s more on this sample than on every other book related to this topic) and thanks to Dmitry Katson for helping on the AI demo.

Huge thanks also to the reviewers, Daniel Rimmelzwaan and Danilo Capuano. Your inputs was precious to update the content after the first iteration (Daniel gives us a lot of suggestions to improve content and format in some sections).

And finally, huge thanks also to the Packt staff that worked hard with us in these months to reach the target. I think we was a great team together…

I can now proudly say that YES! We have done it again!!

The book is available to purchase in paper or digital formats starting from March 19, 2024. You can buy it from Packt website, from Amazon or from other sources.

We hope you’ll appreciate it…

As usual, feel free to post or tweet pics with the book in your hands and tag us. Please also share this post on your network if you can. Small thing for you but a great sign of appreciation and motivation for us.
